Under the tranquil starry sky, the Clan Leader Kasa and two elder world Elder stood in space, with ten towering Mechanical Puppet standing in the starry sky behind them.

A white planet silently rotates in the background.

This is the administrative center of the Lingtong Star Domain, Jiuyuan Star.

Since the ruler of the Xuanshang Universe Country bestowed a star field upon Jiang Yao, the Lingtong Race has relocated the entire clan to this star field, and the star field has been renamed the Lingtong Star Domain.

Since Jiang Yao took office as the Inspector Envoy the Xuanshang Universe Country, eighteen hundred years have passed. The Lingtong Race has recovered a lot of its vitality. However, the Elder at the World Lord Level cannot be cultivated in one or two thousand years. But there are more star-level and universe-level geniuses than before Jiuyuan's fall.

It has also given rise to many geniuses, some of whom were absorbed into the Three Great Secret Realms of the Universe Country, some into the Xuanshang Branch of the five major forces, and even some peerless geniuses qualified to enter the Core Layer of the Virtual Universe Company.

The Clan Leader and two elder realm Elder were welcoming Qianhuo, a genius who had been confirmed to be absorbed into the Core Layer of the Virtual Universe Company.

As the highest-ranking member of the Lingtong Race, he knew that many of the Lingtong Race's geniuses had recently been assassinated, hence his somber expression.

Qianhuo, as the strongest genius of the new Lingtong Race, must not be lost, especially now that Jiang Yao has been missing for more than 1,500 years.

"They've arrived!" Clan Leader Kasa stared intently into the void. A spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared, and a black, Shuttle Spaceship emerged—it was Qianhuo's spaceship.

However, no one emerged from the spaceship. After communicating with the Intelligent Life, Kasa frowned and entered the spaceship, where he saw a figure that was neither human nor inhuman, covered in blood, sitting cross-legged on the floor, constantly groaning in pain.

"He's actually fusing with the crystal left behind by Jiang Yao?" Kasa was shocked. As the Clan Leader, he had also tried to fuse with it and naturally knew how difficult it was to fuse with this mysterious crystal, even if it was almost impossible.

For nearly two thousand years, not a single member of the Lingtong Race has been able to successfully fuse with the spirit.

"Sigh..." Kasa sighed, "If that mysterious Immortal Expert hadn't left, my Lingtong Race would have been in crisis once again, and Qianhuo wouldn't have been so desperate to fuse with the Sacred Crystal."

Another Elder of the realm said, "This Qianhuo reminds me of His Prince Jiang Yao. At that time, my Lingtong Race was on the verge of collapse. Now our situation is much better than it was back then."

Kasa shook his head with a wry smile. At first glance, the Lingtong Race's situation was indeed much better than after the fall of the Jiuyuan, and in many aspects, it even surpassed the time when the Jiuyuan Ancestor was alive, possessing an entire star field.

However, precisely because of this, there are even more forces secretly eyeing the situation. For a race without Immortal God to oversee it, possessing a star field and so much wealth is like sitting on a bonfire.

If it weren't for the deterrent effect left by Jiang Yao and the mysterious Immortal Expert who had secretly protected the Lingtong Race, the Lingtong Race would have fallen into the abyss once again.

But Jiang Yao has been missing for nearly two thousand years. Apart from the Lingtong Race, who still harbors a sliver of unrealistic hope, who would believe that Jiang Yao is still alive?

"Where is the powerful realm master who was chasing Qianhuo?" An elderly realm Elder looked at the distant starry sky through the external simulation with a puzzled expression. No other spaceships were seen passing by.

"Hmph, they must have given up the chase halfway after discovering Qianhuo's flight path." Another realm lord said coldly, "No matter what realm lord they are, even if they are a peak expert who has obtained the recognition of the Origin Law, they will be doomed if they try to chase them to our Lingtong Star Domain!"

Although the Lingtong Race still lacks Immortal Expert, and after Jiang Yao's disappearance, his Guard Army also left and returned to the Virtual Universe Company, the wealth and trump cards left behind by Jiang Yao are still considerable.

Let alone the E9-grade Laser Gun that can kill a ninth-tier World Lord, those 100 F9-level Mechanical Puppet alone would be enough to kill an ordinary Immortal God.

Suddenly, ripples appeared in space, and three powerful auras burst forth from the Dark Universe!

To the astonishment of Kasa and the two elder world Elder, three Alien Race figures of different shapes appeared in the starry sky.

One had wings tens of meters long, and the other had fiery red skin covered in crystals.

At the very center, and also the one with the most terrifying aura, was a powerful figure with a ferocious appearance, three curved horns along the edge of his face, and fangs bared in his mouth.

"Immortal God!?"

Although the opponent did not unleash their Law Domain, their aura as Immortal God was still immediately apparent.

Damn it!

Kasa and two elder world Elder rushed out of the spaceship. Behind them, ten tall F9-level Mechanical Puppet opened their eyes, revealing red eyes and exuding a powerful aura that was enough to make people shudder.

Three more Elder of the Lingtong Race, who had sensed something amiss, flew out from Jiuyuan Star.

"Alien Race?" Kasa's face darkened. "How dare you invade my Human Territory!"

Kasa had anticipated that someone might try to probe the Lingtong Race, or even that a powerful force might send warships to attack them, but he never expected that Alien Race Lingtong Race would appear, and that an Immortal Expert from that Alien Race would descend upon the Lingtong Star Domain.

The leader, a hideous Alien Race immortal, let out a piercing laugh, looking disdainfully at Kasa and the five terrified world lords behind him. "Hand over the Xueluo Crystal! And I'll let you go!"

"Xueluo Crystal?" Kasa was startled. The strange crystal left by Jiang Yao was indeed called Xueluo Crystal, but the Lingtong Race had always referred to it as the Sacred Crystal.

These Alien Race immortals came for the Xueluo Crystal?

The immortal Alien Race had mysterious expressions. They were Soul Slave secretly recruited by the King Tianmu in the Outer-Region Battlefield. The news that the Lingtong Race possessed the Xueluo Crystal had long been spread, and the King Tianmu was not without covetousness. However, even if the Lingtong Race handed over the Xueluo Crystal, he would still completely destroy and slaughter them.

"Start the spaceship and get out of here quickly!" Kasa decisively used the World Force to transmit his voice into Qianhuo's spaceship, instructing the Intelligent Life Qianhuo to start the spaceship and escape with Qianhuo, who was still fusing with the Xueluo Crystal.

He certainly didn't believe that as long as he handed over the Xueluo Crystal, the other party would let the Lingtong Race go.

Whenever powerful beings from Alien Race openly appear in Human Territory, they slaughter billions or even trillions of humans. These powerful beings from Alien Race show no mercy to humans.

The overwhelming despair seemed to drag him back to the time when the Jiuyuan Ancestor perished, a time when Jiang Yao, this peerless genius, upheld the hope of the Lingtong Race.

This moment is even more desperate than when Jiuyuan fell. At least the Sacred Land like Yinhu Island wouldn't dare to massacre the Lingtong Race on a large scale, but the Alien Race powerhouses would have absolutely no scruples. He could only place his hopes for the continuation of the Lingtong Race on yet another genius Qianhuo.

Ten F9-level Mechanical Puppet, forged from pure Dark Gold Iron Mother, simultaneously emitted red beams of light, attacking the three Alien Race immortals.

Each Mechanical Puppet possesses attack power nearly World Lord War General, and is immune to Soul Attack. Their bodies are extremely tough and hard, making them difficult to destroy. Ten Mechanical Puppet are enough to rival even the most ordinary human Immortal God, making them the Lingtong Race's last trump card.

The other 90 Mechanical Puppet were deployed in other parts of the Lingtong Star Domain; otherwise, the combined attack power of 100 Mechanical Puppet would be even stronger.

"Haha! You think a few Mechanical Puppet can stop me? You think we are your weak Immortal God? None of you will escape!" The leading Alien Race immortal laughed and instantly unleashed more than a dozen beams of Immortal Divine Power, directly piercing through the 10 F9-level Mechanical Puppet!

Kasa and the five elder world Elder were instantly plunged into despair.

"How is that possible?!"

Even ordinary Immortal God cannot destroy the F9-level Mechanical Puppet, whose body is Extreme Point tough.

This Alien Race is no ordinary Immortal God!

The grotesque Alien Race immortal revealed a bloodthirsty smile, and crimson light suddenly radiated outwards, its Law Domain covering the starry sky, including the Jiuyuan Star, at the speed of light.

The countless Lingtong Race living on the giant planet were all in a state of unconsciousness under the powerful Law Domain, as if the other party could slaughter billions of lives and destroy the planet in the blink of an eye.

"Hmph, Master is too cautious. The Lingtong Race has no trump cards that can threaten us at all. I alone can sweep through the entire Lingtong Star Domain." The Alien Race immortal lowered his eyes as if looking at ants. "You lowly race, die!"

"The Mojiu Race?"

A calm voice, like a thunderclap, rang in the ears of the immortal Alien Race in an instant.

In the distant starry sky, a young man from the Lingtong Race, dressed in black battle armor, appeared out of nowhere. His gaze fell upon the three astonished immortals of Alien Race, and he said calmly, "So you are Soul Slave. Who is your master?"

The sound was neither too loud nor too soft, yet it seemed to contain a certain artistic conception of time and space, as if massaging the soul and consciousness of each person.

Inside the Shuttle Spaceship, Qian Huo, writhing in pain from fusing with the Xueluo Crystal, knelt on one knee, clenching his fists and pounding them on the spaceship floor, gritting his teeth and sweat Qianhuo down his face. In despair, he looked through the external simulation at the three Alien Race immortals in the distance, their auras incomparable.

The calm voice, seemingly echoing in his ears, seemed to know that he was fusing with the Xueluo Crystal and the pain he was enduring, and with a strange rhythm, it soothed and massaged Qianhuo's will, which was on the verge of collapse.

"Jiang Yao... Your Highness..."

Laugh!

The entire Xueluo Crystal instantly melted into a strange power, completely merging into the body of the person who obtained it, causing some blood-red secret patterns to appear on his skin.

"Success! Success!" Qianhuo excitedly scanned his surroundings, then looked through the virtual view at the figure in the starry sky that appeared extremely small compared to the three Alien Race immortals. "Prince Jiang Yao is back!"

Jiang Yao withdrew his gaze from the spaceship, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. "Such a tenacious will. His talent Pingping, but his willpower is astonishing."

"Jiang Yao..."

The three immortal Alien Race different races, each enormous in size and with distinct appearances, looked at the suddenly appearing Lingtong Race youth as if facing a formidable enemy.

Although they were of Alien Race and had never seen Jiang Yao, their master often mentioned him, so they naturally knew what Jiang Yao looked like.

On a colossal, earthen-yellow planet countless light-years away, the King Tianmu suddenly opened his eyes. "Jiang Yao?! He's not dead?! How is that possible?!"

The three Soul Slave he sent out had just informed him through soul communication that Jiang Yao had suddenly appeared.

King Tianmu's heart tightened. Although Jiang Yao was not Immortal God, his Law Comprehension was extremely high. Moreover, he had been given countless treasures by the Chaos City Lord, and could even unleash the combat power of High-level Marquis. Although his three Immortal Servant were all far stronger than Ordinary Immortal, and the strongest one, the Mojiu Race Immortal Servant, even had the strength of Initial Marquis, they were definitely no match for Jiang Yao!

"Damn it!" After the initial shock, a cold killing intent flashed in the King Tianmu's eyes. "Even if you're not dead, I'll still collect some interest! Self-destruct!"

The three immortal Alien Race, including a powerful figure with the strength of a Marquis-level, could certainly not harm Jiang Yao with their self-destruction, but if caught off guard, they could definitely cause huge losses to the Lingtong Race, enough to destroy the Lingtong Race's core planet Jiuyuan Star!

After receiving the command from the King Tianmu's soul, the three immortal Alien Race from different races did not hesitate for a moment. They stared at Jiang Yao with ferocious expressions, ready to self-destruct immediately.

Jiang Yao, of course, saw through the intentions of these three immortal Alien Race. He sneered, a bell rang, and an invisible wave swept across the starry sky in an instant.

The three Alien Race immortals were pinned to the spot, unable to even move their eyes, let alone self-destruct!

Time Stop!

Jiang Yao's Space-Time Annihilation Intent has reached the level of the 19th floor of the Heavenly Bridge. He has mastered most of the mysteries of the Law of Time and space, including the ability to Time Stop.

Using the "Life Clock of Zhou" condensed from the soul-type Law of Time technique Years, the Time Stop he unleashed was even more powerful than that of a typical King-level expert who had comprehended the Law of Time, instantly freezing three Alien Race immortals.

Jiang Yao took a step forward and Teleportation teleported in front of the three Alien Race immortals. Without him making any move, the three Alien Race immortals suddenly disappeared.

On the earthen-yellow planet, the King Tianmu's face initially contorted in a ferocious expression, but the next moment it suddenly turned to horror.

"How is this possible?! How could we suddenly lose contact?"

King Tianmu stared incredulously in the direction of the Lingtong Star Domain: "Even if it self-destructed, it wouldn't disappear so abruptly... What happened?"

He suddenly lost contact with his three Soul Slave.

"What exactly happened?"

Jiang Yao took the three Alien Race immortals, who offered no resistance, into the "Liuyu Crystal," and secretly remarked, "This Liuyu Crystal is quite convenient as a prison."

He didn't kill the three Alien Race immortals directly because he wanted to know who was behind it. To be able to Soul Enslavement three Alien Race immortals with their souls, the mastermind must be Immortal Expert, at least Marquis-level or even King-level.

Jiang Yao had quite a few possible names in mind, mainly because he had indeed offended many people and forces during his tenure Inspector Envoy the Universe Country. He did not regret his actions, so for the safety of the Lingtong Race and to deter those forces that harbored resentment towards him, he could not let the mastermind go.

Whether they are Marquis Immortal or King-level Immortal, regardless of whose disciple they are or what kind of peak bloodline they come from, if they dare to attack the Lingtong Race, only death can serve as a deterrent.

Searching the souls of Immortal God is extremely difficult, as their souls have been transformed into Spiritual Imprint and integrated into every aspect of their divine power. It is even more difficult to search the Soul Slave, whose masters can make their Soul Slave self-destruct at any time.

But he possesses the "Liuyu Crystal," so these are naturally not problems. The Liuyu Crystal can even block the Virtual Universe, let alone sever the connection between the mastermind and the Soul Slave.

Moreover, within the Liuyu Crystal World, with his power to Control of Space-Time and time comparable to that of Universe Master, searching for the Immortal God would be as easy as turning one's hand.
